几年前,多数中国地质学家还认为对冈瓦纳研究与中国地质关系不大。虽然新疆早有冈瓦纳型二、三叠纪二齿兽类的发现,人们也只在寻找南、北大陆间的“陆桥”上思考。七十年代中期,北喜马拉雅发现了晚古生代冰海沉积和Stepanoviella冷水生物群以及舌羊齿植物群,这就成了中国冈瓦纳研究的真正开端。但此后许多人仍然认为,在中国只有藏南一隅属于冈瓦纳大陆,雅鲁藏布江—印度河则是南、北大陆的分界。通过近几年中国地质学家以及与法国地质学家的合作研究,发现青藏高原中、北部(拉萨、羌塘地区)与东部(滇西),仍有同时代冰海沉积与冈瓦纳生物群。这一进展大大开阔了人们的视野,中国存在大冈瓦纳陆块的思想开始为越来越多的人所接受。受冈瓦纳研究冲击,促使地质界重新进行区域地质对比研究和古生物地理研究,以解决板块活
A few years ago, most Chinese geologists also believed that the Gondwana study had little to do with the geology of China. Although the early discovery of the Gondwana type II and Triassic Bisexuals in Xinjiang, people are only thinking of looking for “land bridges” between the South and North continents. In the mid-1970s, the discovery of the Late Paleozoic ice-sea deposits and the Stepanoviella cold-water biota and the lingual fern flora in the northern Himalayas became the real start of the Gondwana study in China. However, many people still believe that in the future, only the corner of southern Tibet belongs to the mainland of Gondwana and the Brahmaputra-Indian River is the boundary of southern and northern China. Through the cooperation between Chinese geologists and geologists in France in recent years, it is found that there are still the same glacial sea sediments and Gondwana creatures in the central and northern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (Lhasa and Qiangtang areas) and the eastern (western Yunnan) group. This progress has greatly broadened people’s horizons, and the idea of the existence of the Greater Gondwanaland block began to be accepted by more and more people. Affected by the Gondwana study, the geology community has been re-conducted regional geological contrast studies and palaeogeography studies to solve the problem of plate life
